Aprašymas

When Carmen de la Vega's boyfriend tries to kill her, she hands over all her savings to a coyote and sets out from Tijuana in a small, leaky boat. Within sight of the California coast, the boat starts to sink, and its passengers have to be rescued by border patrol.

Carmen winds up dead in a privately-operated Migrant Detention Center, and no one seems to care. No-one except Nick Finn, the migra officer who saved Carmen from drowning, and his wife, human-rights lawyer Mona Jimenez.

Neither Finn nor Mona are satisfied with the prison's account of what happened to Carmen. Trouble is, the company that runs the prison is on the verge of signing a billion-dollar procurement contract with Homeland Security. And there are people in this world for whom a billion dollars is worth a whole lot more than one human life. Or even three.

In White Queen, Finn and Mona find themselves caught in the center of a deadly conspiracy whose strands stretch from the Mexican border to the heart of Washington, D.C. And the more of the web they uncover, the closer they get to meeting its spinner face to face.
